The invention relates in general to a semiconductor package and manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to a semiconductor package whose lead frame can be independently isolated and transported during the manufacturing process.

2. Description of the Related Art

Along with the advance in science and technology, the demand for various electronic products is booming. Meanwhile, as miniaturization is expected of electronic products by consumers, the semiconductor element, a crucial element used in an electronic product, is also directed towards the design of miniaturization, and the reduction in the pitch and width of the circuit of a semiconductor element has always been an important direction in the semiconductor industry. However, in addition to the reduction in the pitch and width of the circuit inside a semiconductor chip, the chip package carrying the signal and extended to the external also plays an important part in the miniaturization of a semiconductor element. If the circuit and pitch of a semiconductor package can not be effectively reduced, the miniaturization in the size of a semiconductor element using the same will be very limited.

For example, the thickness of a metallic trace of a conventional package normally ranges between 120˜250 micrometer, and a package trace is formed after the process of micro-filming, exposure and etching. However, the etching process restricts the pitch and width of a circuit, and the undercutting effect will affect the reliability of the package trace. Therefore, the conventional lead frame of the package trace is not suitable to the miniaturization in semiconductor element.

Thus, how to resolve the above problem of element miniaturization and simplify the manufacturing process of the package has become an important direction in the research and development of semiconductor package.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

First Embodiment

Referring to FIG. 1 onwards, process flowcharts of manufacturing an independent semiconductor package according to a first embodiment of the invention are shown. Firstly, a carrier 10 is provided. In the present embodiment of the invention, the carrier 10 is a steel piece. Then, referring to FIG. 2, a photo-resist layer 11 is formed on the carrier 10 first, and further shaped as a patterned photo-resist layer 11′ as indicated in FIG. 3.

Referring to FIG. 4, a conductive layer 20 is formed in the empty part of the photo-resist layer 11′, wherein the thickness of the conductive layer 20 normally between ranges 0.01˜0.4 mm, but preferably ranges between 0.025˜0.035 mm. In the present embodiment of the invention, the conductive layer 20 is formed by electroplating. As indicated in FIG. 5, the photo-resist layer 11′ is removed, but the conductive layer 20 (the first conductive layer) is left and used as package traces not the traces inside a semiconductor chip. In the present embodiment of the invention, a plurality of package traces formed by the conductive layer 20 are preferably electrically isolated and used as a package trace layout unit. In practical application, the package traces are electrically connected to each other. During the process of formation, a plurality of package trace layout units are formed, and each package trace layout unit substantially has the same pattern and individually corresponds to a to-be-packaged chip.

Referring to FIG. 6, a mold 23 is provided, wherein the mold 23 has a plurality of protrusions corresponding to the position of the trace layer 20. At least one mold cavity 24 is formed with the mold 23. Then, an insulating material is infused in the mold cavity 24 to form a first insulating layer 21, wherein the thickness of the first insulating layer 21 normally ranges between 0.1˜0.4 mm, but preferably ranges between 0.18˜0.22 mm. As indicated in FIG. 7, a plurality of package traces are embedded in the first insulating layer 21 or disposed in the first insulating layer 21 and extended to a surface of the first insulating layer 21. In the present embodiment of the invention, the insulating material is a molding material, the elastic modulus of the insulating material is larger than 1.0 GPa, and preferably the CTE value of the insulating material is less than 10 ppm. In practical application, the first insulating layer 21 is not necessarily limited to one layer. Any one who is skilled in the technology of the invention can use several materials to compose a compound insulating layer in several times of formation or use the same material to compose an insulating layer in several times of formation, and such modifications are still within the scope of protection of the invention. However, in the present embodiment of the invention, the first insulating layer 21 is formed from a single material, such that the package traces are embedded in the first insulating layer 21. That is, the height of the first insulating layer 21 must be larger than the height of the package traces.

As a plurality of protrusions disposed on the mold 23 correspond to the trace layer 20, a plurality of holes 22 are formed on a surface of the first insulating layer 21. Referring to FIG. 8, the mold 23 and the carrier 10 are removed, and a semiconductor package that can be transported independently is formed. In the present embodiment of the invention, the other end of the holes 22 contacts the package trace of the trace layer 20, wherein the holes used as positioning units for connecting the conductors are made from the trace layer 20

Referring to FIG. 9, an independent semiconductor package manufactured according to FIG. 8 is connected to a chip 31 via a second conductor. In the present embodiment of the invention, the second conductor is connected to the chip 31 via a solder 33 and a pillar bump 32. Besides, as indicated in FIG. 10, the hole 22 can be fully or partly filled with a conductive material, such as nickel, gold, copper or solder, to form a second conductive layer 41. In the present embodiment of the invention, the conductive material is formed by solder 41 to facilitate subsequent processing.

Referring to FIG. 11, the conductor 42 is fixed on the independent semiconductor package via position-setting of the holes 22, such that the signal of the he chip 31 is transmitted externally via pillar bump 32, the solder 33, the trace layer 20, and the conductor 42. In the present embodiment of the invention, the conductor 42 is a solder ball or a trace and the conductor 42 could be used to connect to printed circuit board (PC Board) or another layer of receiving substrate. To avoid the solder of the solder ball flowing everywhere when melted, the positioning unit limits is for confining the solder to be within the hole 22. In the present embodiment of the invention, the positioning unit is a hole 22, which can be a run through hole or an indent only.

The solder 41 enables the electrically connection between the conductor 42 and the trace layer 20 even more tightly, and avoids the occurrence of bubbles which occurs when a solder ball is used as the conductor 42 but can not completely fill up the hole 22.

On the other hand, the independent semiconductor package and the package of the chip 31 can be flexible. Referring to FIG. 12, an insulating material, such as an encapsulating material, can be used as a second insulating layer 51 and infused to the chip 31 to encapsulate the pillar bump 32 but exposes the chip 31. Or, as indicated in FIG. 13, the second insulating layer 52 encapsulates the pillar bump 32 and the chip 31 but exposes the upper surface of the chip 31. Or, as indicated in FIG. 14, the second insulating layer 53 encapsulates the pillar bump 32 but is aligned with the chip 31.

Besides, the semiconductor package is also used in a multi-chip package. Referring to FIG. 15, a space 72 permitting the chip 61 to be fixed and connected to the trace is disposed in addition to the hole of the first insulating layer, and the chip is connected to the solder ball via a hole 22′.

Referring to FIG. 16, a perspective of a lead frame according to a first embodiment of the invention is shown. FIG. 16 is bottom view of FIG. 8, wherein the package trace layout unit 80 formed by a first conductive layer is embedded in the first insulating layer 21, and a plurality of fiducial marks 90 are used for positioning a lead frame when the chip is packaged. In the present embodiment of the invention, the shape of individual package trace layout unit 80 is indicated in FIG. 17. A package trace layout unit 80 comprises a plurality of electrically isolated package traces to form the pattern of a package trace layout unit and correspond to a to-be-packaged chip, wherein smaller chips are electrically connected via the conductive dots 84, and larger chips are electrically connected via the conductive dots 74. Thus, it can be used as the lead frame of different sized chips in the present embodiment of the invention. As indicated in FIG. 16 and FIG. 17, the package trace layout units 80 substantially have the same pattern, and the package trace layout units 80, isolated between each other, are arranged in a matrix and embedded in the first insulating layer 21.

Each package trace layout unit 80 preferably has a fan-in or fan-out pattern. The first conductive layer 20 and the second conductive layer 41 can have different pitches to achieve the function of fine pitch.

Second Embodiment

Referring to FIG. 18 and onwards, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package according to a second embodiment of the invention is shown. Firstly, a carrier 19 is provided, wherein the carrier 19 is made from copper in the present embodiment of the invention. Like FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 of the first embodiment, other manufacturing methods obtain the stage result as indicated in FIG. 18, a patterned first conductive layer 20′ is formed in the first patterned photo-resist layer 11′ on the carrier 19′.

Referring to FIG. 19, a second photo-resist layer 25 is coated on the first patterned photo-resist layer 11′, and a hole 27′ is formed on the second photo-resist layer 25 to form a second patterned photo-resist layer 25′. Referring to FIG. 20, a second conductive layer 27 is formed in the hole 27′. In the present embodiment of the invention, the second conductive layer 27 is formed by way of electroplating and is substantially flat and not protruding from the surface of the first insulating layer 28.

The photo-resist layer 25 is removed such that a patterned first conductive layer 20′ and a second conductive layer 27 are obtained. As indicated in FIG. 21, a mold 23 is provided and at least one mold cavity 24 is formed with the mold 23. Referring to FIG. 22, a molding material is injected to form a first insulating layer 28, such that the patterned first conductive layer 20′ and the second conductive layer 27 are embedded in the first insulating layer 28. In the present embodiment of the invention, the molding material used to form the first insulating layer 28 is epoxy resin, the elastic modulus of the molding material is greater than 1.0 GPa, but the CTE value of the elastic modulus is less than 10 ppm.

By way of etching, the carrier 19 is removed to obtain a semiconductor package before package as indicated in FIG. 23. The application of the unpackaged semiconductor package is indicated in FIG. 24, and the unpackaged semiconductor package can be connected to the chip 31′ via the solder 33′, the pillar bump 32′.

Besides, the second conductive layer 27 can be pre-treated to resolve the resin residue problem arising in a QFN package when the tape is removed.

The conductive protrusion 39 can be made from silver, gold, other metals or conductive materials, and the part of the package trace layout directly atop of the conductive protrusion is the molding material of the first insulating layer 28. Thus, when the unpackaged semiconductor package is used in conventional wiring bonding, the trace can be connected to the conductive protrusion 39 such that the lead frame neighbors the chip package as close as possible and will not wobble when connected to the traces, hence increasing the efficiency of bonding the wire to the chip.

Third Embodiment

Referring to FIG. 26 and onwards, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package according to a third embodiment of the invention is shown. Firstly, a carrier 19′ is provided, wherein the carrier 19′ is made from copper in the present embodiment of the invention. Like FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 of the first embodiment, other manufacturing methods obtain the stage result as indicated in FIG. 26, a patterned first conductive layer 20′ is formed in the first patterned photo-resist layer 11′ on the carrier 19′.

Referring to FIG. 27, a second photo-resist layer 25 is coated on the first patterned photo-resist layer 11′, and a hole 27′ is formed on the Patterned photo-resist layer 25. Referring to FIG. 28, a second conductive layer 27 is formed in the hole 27′. In the present embodiment of the invention, the second conductive layer 27 is formed by way of electroplating and is substantially flat and not protruding from the surface of the first insulating layer 28.

The photo-resist layer 25 is removed such that a patterned first conductive layer 20′ and a second conductive layer 27 are obtained As indicated in FIG. 29, a mold 23 is provided and at least one mold cavity 24 is formed with the mold 23. Referring to FIG. 30, a molding material is injected to form a first insulating layer 28, such that the patterned first conductive layer 20′ and the second conductive layer 27 are embedded in the first insulating layer 28. In the present embodiment of the invention, the molding material used to form the first insulating layer 28 is epoxy resin, the elastic modulus of the molding material is greater than 1.0 GPa, but the CTE value of the elastic modulus is less than 10 ppm.

By way of etching, part of the carrier 19′ is selectly removed to obtain a semiconductor package before package as indicated in FIGS. 31-35.

Referring to FIG. 31, a photo resist layer 81 is formed on the carrier 19′. Then the photo resist layer 81 is exposed via a mask 82 having at least a first opening 82 a and at least a second opening 82 b as shown in FIG. 32. And a patterned photo resist layer 81 having at least a first opening 81 a and at least a second opening 81 b is obtained as indicated in FIG. 33. Wherein the first opening 81 a and the first opening 82 a are corresponding with the inside area of the first insulating layer 28, and the second opening 81 b and the second opening 82 b are corresponding with the outside area of the first insulating layer 28.

Afterwards, referring to FIG. 34, the carrier 19′ is etched by taking the patterned photo resist layer 81 as a mask. Wherein the carrier 19′ and part of the first conductive layer 20′ are etched simultaneously so that the surface 20′a of the first conductive layer 20′ and the surface 28 a of the first insulating layer 28 are not located at the same plane. Then, the patterned photo resist layer 81 is removed so that an enforcement ring 19′c and at least a positioning hole 19′b are formed on the carrier 19′ as indicated in FIG. 35.

Please refer to FIG. 36. After part of the carrier 19′ is selectly removed, the enforcement ring 19′c is formed on the peripheral area of the carrier 19′ and the positioning hole 19′b are formed in the enforcement ring 19′c. The semiconductor package can be carried via the enforcement ring 19′c and the position hole 19′b without touching the first insulating layer 28 or the second conductive layer 27. Therefore, the scraping damage of the semiconductor package can be prevented.

The conductive layer 20 or 20′ (the package trace) is formed during the manufacturing process without applying extra process such as micro-filming, exposure and etching on the conductive layer, so that the conductive layer is not restricted by the etching pitch and the reliability of the package trace will not be affected by undercutting. However, the package trace meets the requirement of miniaturization in the semiconductor element better.

The package trace layout unit has a fan-in or fan-out pattern to achieve the function of fine pitch.

Moreover, the hole 22 (the positioning unit) makes the positioning setting of connecting the solder ball to the package element more precisely, and avoids the overflowing of the solder when melted.

Besides, the mold 23, and hole 22 (the positioning unit) are formed by using the material of the first insulating layer 21 directly, such that the first insulating layer 21 and the positioning unit are formed by one filling of the molding material, largely simplifying the manufacturing process of the semiconductor package.

Moreover, according to FIG. 11, with the disposition of the package trace 20, the pitch between the solder balls can be larger than the pitch between the chip bumps 32. Therefore, the technology of the invention can be applied to a manufacturing process with a lower requirement of the pitch.

Furthermore, the first insulating layer 21 uses a molding material as a carrier for the package trace pattern, therefore the package trace patterns are not connected by metallic traces and are different form conventional lead frame which has traces for connecting the package trace patterns. The insulating layer between the traces of the lead frame is simply used for insulating purpose and can not be used as a carrier. As a result, in the embodiments of the invention does not have the connecting traces for connecting the lead frame patterns, and each package has an individual pattern, and is easier for cutting.

In a conventional chip, the package traces are connected via metallic traces, therefore the package traces must be divided first before the chip can be tested individually. In the above embodiments, as each package trace pattern is electrically isolated and does not have metallic traces for connection, the chip still can be tested even after the chip is connected to the package trace, largely saving time and cost for testing.
